Have a very nasty case of permagrump going on. Back issues are causing me horrible, breakthrough pain and just do not have much relief in sight. At least I have a distraction of sorts with this 'cool weather' that is settling in. The transplants here are really whining and sniveling. Babies.
Posting will be erratic at best from me. I have emails to answer and I am surprised Nick has not harassed me about the one I owe him.
Everyone seems to hate this weather except me but then I touched in the head as they say, oh well. I think I will go and clean all my guns. Thanks Andrea, for the fine music.
Here is the latest update from NOAA/NWS.
When the NWS is calling for zero or below here, it is always colder by a few degrees. That -5 to -15 mentioned below? Very real where we are might get even colder. Nothing like wood heat! PatriotUSA

.UPDATE...NOT MUCH CHANGE IN THE SHORT TERM. WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORIES WERE ALLOWED TO BE EXPIRED AT 4PM. JUST LIGHT ON AND OFF
SNOW FLURRIES OCCURRING IN ISOLATED AREAS OF THE BLUE MOUNTAINS.
THE MAIN FOCUS WILL BE THE MID RANGE FORECAST. IT WILL BE ANOTHER
QUIET DAY OR TWO WITH COLD TEMPERATURES AS THIS ARCTIC AIR REMAINS
OVER THE AREA. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WILL BE THE NEXT DAYS OF
INTEREST...AS ANOTHER SURGE OF MOISTURE AND EVEN COLDER AIR FUNNELS
DOWN OVER THE INTERIOR PACIFIC NORTHWEST. THE MAIN AREAS OF CONCERN
FOR SNOW RIGHT NOW LOOK TO BE AROUND THE CENTRAL OREGON AREA TO THE
SOUTHERN BLUE MOUNTAINS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE VERY COLD...SO SNOW
TO LIQUID RATIOS COULD GET QUITE HIGH...AND IT WONT TAKE MUCH QPF TO
FOR MODERATE ACCUMULATIONS TO OCCUR. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE
SYSTEM...BUT OTHER CONCERNS WILL BE THE NORTHERLY GRADIENT FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY. WITH WINDS PICKING UP FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY AND VERY
COLD MORNING LOW TEMPERATURES...WIDESPREAD WIND CHILLS BELOW ZERO
CAN BE EXPECTED ACROSS THE LOWER ELEVATIONS AND THE MOUNTAINS.
SATURDAY MORNING MAY EVEN HAVE WIND CHILLS -5 TO -15 FOR AREAS ALONG
THE HORSE HEAVEN HILLS...THE YAKIMA AND KITTITAS VALLEYS...AND THE
LOWER COLUMBIA BASIN OF WASHINGTON. CHECK FREQUENTLY FOR UPDATES TO
THE FORECAST IN THE NEAR TERM AS THIS ARCTIC BLAST GETS CLOSER.

It is winter you know. And don't worry. There's Globull$hit Warming ahead. Or it is Bush's fault. Choose an excuse, put a couple of logs on the fire, a cup of cocoa and AJ by your side and you will be fine. Make that a buxom blond.
Know any buxom blondes???
Nope, but I'm sure you could find one.
